- Today on Booze On The Rocks I show you How To Make The Perfect Gin and Tonic. The Gin and Tonic has been around for ages. It was popularized in Northa America in 1939 by the Canada Dry Company, Before that it was popular in Europe and India.
It began its career thanks to Dr. George Cleghorn and his research into the Cinchoa tree in south America. Its bark contains alkaline compounds such as quinine. Which is used to Fight Malaria. And how do you get a bunch of colonials to take their medicine. Add booze of course!
Do you have a recipe that you want me to make?

Nothing better than a well made G&T on a hot day, especially when you don't feel like breaking out all the gear! Thanks David, and congrats on the patreon!
Your welcome. Another simple back yard cocktail. And thank you very much.
Great video David. Not sure you can get more classical than Gin and Tonic. At least I consider it the most popular classic drink. 🙂
I agree its one of the first classics. Depending on where you are from. What is your most favorite classic?
Absolutely love these and can be so versatile. This summer I have been adding some whole black peppercorns with a dash of lime bitters.
That would add a just a bit of bite. That sounds really good. I will definitely try that.
I’ve muddled a lime wheel or two in my G&T days to get a little extra citrus flavor. It works great for a more “summer” G&T.
A little juice can go a far way. It will either enhance a good gin or hide a bad gin.
Some great history on this drink. It is a quick an easy yet refreshing drink. Thanks for sharing another great episode. Cheers!!
Oh your welcome. I'm glad you liked it.
Yes!! Nice and easy. Right up my alley. Thanks David!!!!
Awesome. glad you like it. Let me know if there is a variation you want to see.
Great video once again! Also, I love that you keep in the clips that you mess up in *like the end, “subscribe button”* it just makes me feel like “Hey this guy isn’t a cut and paste robot and instead he’s cool and has some character! Keep it up!
@DiscoJayJay, Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.
Also what is your favorite cocktail?
Booze On The Rocks honestly I keep jumping back and forth from the classic margarita, to a nice refreshing mojito! But I’ve been trying to find new and excited drinks, thus leading me to binge your channel!
Love the presentation on this one!
Thank you very much.
This is my first time ever trying a Gin & Tonic. It was fine. I added a little more simple syrup and now it is at the flavor that I like. Thanks, Dave, and you have a fantastic day!
Lord Sauron, I'm glad you liked and you found the best version for your self. How much simple syrup did you use in total?
@@boozeontherocks about a tablespoon's worth of the simple syrup or 15ml. 👍😀
@@lordsauron3979 That makes sense :)
@@boozeontherocks Yeah, now it tastes like an adult version of Sprite. Haha!
@@lordsauron3979 Awesome.
Lets talk abeewt.....love that Canadian accent.....
Lets talk abooot the Gin and Tonic!! Thank you.
Thank you! You are the man.
Your welcome. I'm glad you like the video. Is there anything else you would like to see?
Booze On The Rocks When you get the chance, will you make a White Russian?
Also, how many ounces is that highball glass in the gin and tonic video?
Yeah noticing you with the video of a perfect GT is really tricky to begin with, because the gin movement has become larger than life in the past 4-5 years, not to mention the selection of tonics now available instead of just "Schweppes". Both ingredients have their low-tier (bottom shelf), the standardized ok-stuff and then the more expensive high-tier. ALL with their own quirks and perfect serves. Moreover, just like you mention, to each their own when it comes to the preferable gin. What I do love would to have more "abroad" gins to taste, even though there's enough work with the European stuff :D
I usually (read: pretty much every time) stick to the 1:2 ratio, that is 50ml/100ml gin to tonic.
You are right. There is so much variation in gin varieties. Local distilleries are starting to pop up all over the place where Ii live. i would love to try some "abroad" gins to try beside the basic London dry styles.
I need Lvime wedges then I'm good to go... lol
What gin do you like in your G&T?
@@boozeontherocks I use Plymouth for the extra citrus notes but failing that I use any solid London Dry like Beefeater or Bombay..
@@MyPancho1 I have used the Beefeater, I will have to try the Plymouth.
